The Moon is a card of deep healing and subconscious exploration. It asks us to dive into the depths of our subconscious in order to understand the influences of our deepest emotions, fears and illusions in our everyday lives. The Moon uncovers our pain in order to heal and illuminates the journey we must embark on to do so.
The pain we struggle with the most is often hidden in the places we avoid. It lies deep within our most secret and dark places waiting to be unleashed through our day to day emotional triggers. When we refuse to acknowledge this deep seeded pain, it becomes the driving force behind our decisions and actions. It shows up in our dreamscape in the form of nightmares and haunts our waking life through our anxieties. It manipulates our intuition and inner guidance, directing us towards more pain and fear all while disguising itself through the illusion of keeping us safe.
The Moon illuminates our pain for us so we can face it and see it for what it truly is. It asks us to see our fears, sadness, neglect, and abandoned selves that we have not nurtured into healing but have rather left behind stuck in our unhealed pain, forever suffering and screaming for attention through our anxieties, dramas and fears.
The Moon is our call to face this pain rather than running from it or continuing to suppress it. It asks us to gently dive into our pain and our trauma to release our fears and to find a space where we can feel safe within ourselves once again. This is not an easy or quick fix task. This requires us to explore each layer, one at a time until we are able to uncover the root cause and face what we have avoided for so long.
True healing takes time and the willingness to keep facing our fears and traumas over and over again until they no longer have any power over us. It is the willingness to sit with our pain rather than running from it that allows healing to take place. We must feel what we would not allow ourselves to feel in the past in order to acknowledge and release these energies from our body, heart, mind and soul in the present. This is a process that can be supported through many types of therapies and medicines. How we heal will depend on how long this pain has existed and how deeply it is embedded in us. This process will be unique to our own needs and may involve many different healing modalities. How long will depend only on us and our own strength and endurance through the process.
The Moon is our guide and ally through this process. It the healed feminine that holds our hand and offers us support as we journey through this pain. Like a therapist or healer, it cannot do the healing for us. Only we can truly heal through our own wisdom and strength. But it can illuminate the steps for us to take and lovingly guide us through to the other side with support and within a safe container.
The Moon represents all subconscious influences. This can be through the collective as well as the individual. Depending on belief systems, these influences can also be passed down through ancestral lineages as well as past lives. Different healing modalities help us to explore the root cause of our pain and trauma so we can face it and free ourselves from its influences.
The Moon is our light through the darkness reminding us we are safe, loved, supported and guided through our healing journey. On the other side of this journey is peace and a restoration of our energy and essence. From here we can recover from our pain and return back to a life of joy, wonder and fun.
In our healed space, we also learn to trust our intuitions again and to play gently with our imagination. When we are no longer manipulated by our fear and pain, we find it much easier to navigate our life from this healed space and our intuitive powers grow as we trust ourselves more. Our dreamscape becomes a playground in which we explore our imagination in safe ways. Our anxieties cease to exist, and we dream through our hopes rather than our fears. The Moon calls to us when we are ready to take this journey of healing and reclaim our power from our fear and pain so that we can shine light for others to do the same. The Moon is the illumination that guides us on the journey that takes us from healing to becoming the Healer.
